Popular Post MILT Posted March 7, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted March 7, 2015 Mitragyna speciosa (ketum,[2]kratom or kratum,[3]Thai: กระท่อม) is a tropical deciduous and evergreen tree in the coffee family (Rubiaceae) native to Southeast Asia in the Indochina and Malesia floristic regions. Its leaves are used for medicinal properties. It is psychoactive, and leaves are chewed to uplift mood and to treat health problems.[4]M. speciosa is indigenous to Thailand and, despite growing naturally in the country, has been outlawed for 70 years and was originally banned because it was reducing the Thai government's tax revenue from opium distribution.[4] What a sham.... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so long as some poor bast4rds are subject to having had to pay up for getting out of being prosecuted for it. Kratom? Pfft. Meanwhile, every man and his dog are on the take from ya baa distribution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

96tehtarp Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Kratom is very innocuous and should be legalized. Follow the link in Post #2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
